A fascinating exploration of sexuality, pleasure and desire. 



Dr. Flaumenbaum, a gynaecologist and acupuncturist, draws on more than forty years of experience to explain how women today build their sexuality, why pleasure or even desire is so seldom present, and importantly how to remedy it.



Her pioneering approach brings together gynaecology, Chinese medicine, psychoanalysis and transgenerational theory.Despite the sexual revolution of the 1970s, the prohibition of sexual pleasure and joy still exists, carried down from previous generations.



Dr. Flaumenbaum explores how this plays out, how sexuality is formed, the difference and complementarity between being a mother and a woman and how love and feelings are not enough to switch on the sexual connection.



Woman Desired, Woman Desiring provides case studies, covering a breadth of topics from gynaecological ailments to inherited social and cultural burdens.

Daniele Flaumenbaum is a gynaecologist and acupuncurist, and a member of the Faculty of Medicine in Paris for over 40 years. In the 1980s Daniele studied Chinese medicine and Taoist sexual alchemy, as well as exploring transgenerational psychoanalysis which highlights ancestral heritage. She is a pioneer in her field in bringing these disciplines together and this has transformed her life as a woman and those of her patients. She has been the president of the 'Jardin d'Idees Association' since 2010.
